life of long familiar things and
symbols and places. I have come to think of even Shakespeare's journeys
to Rome or to Verona as the outflowing of an unrest, a dissatisfaction
with natural interests, an unstable equilibrium of the whole European
mind that would not have come had Constantinople wall been built of
better stone. I am orthodox and pray for a resurrection of the body, and
am certain that a man should find his Holy Land where he first crept
upon the floor, and that familiar woods and rivers should fade into
symbol with so gradual a change that he never discover, no not even in
ecstasy itself, that he is beyond space, and that time alone keeps him
from Primum Mobile, the Supernal Eden, and the White Rose over all.

Here ends Discoveries; written by William Butler Yeats. Printed, upon
paper made in Ireland, by Elizabeth C. Yeats, Esther Ryan and Beatrice
Cassidy, and published by Elizabeth C. Yeats, at the Dun Emer Press, in
the house of Evelyn Gleeson at Dundrum, in the County of Dublin,
Ireland. Finished on the twelfth day of September, in the year 1907.
